Topped with lovely Mediterranean flavours, this warm baked Brie is the perfect appetizer for sharing. Store-bought caramelized onions cut down on prep time.

Serves: 2

Ingredients

  • 4 oz (125 g) Président Professionnel Double Crème Brie
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) olive oil
  • ½ cup (125 mL) grape tomatoes, halved
  • 3 large green olives, pitted and sliced
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) prepared caramelized onions
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) fresh thyme leaves
  • ¼ tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper
  • 8 baguette rounds, toasted

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease 3-inch (8 cm) oven-safe ceramic ramekin; set aside.
  2. Heat olive oil in small skillet set over medium heat; cook tomatoes for 3 to 5 minutes or until soft and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat; mix in olives, caramelized onions, thyme, salt and pepper.
  3. Cut Brie into chunks; arrange evenly in ramekin. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until Brie just starts to melt.
  4. Spoon tomato mixture over top; bake for 3 to 5 minutes or until heated through and cheese is completely melted.
  5. Serve with baguette toasts.

Tips

  • Alternatively, substitute rosemary or basil for thyme.
  • Add chopped toasted walnuts or pecans for a crunch.
